Sir,
   You will proceed along the line of the Virginia & Tennessee Rail Road and inspect the Quarter Master's Posts and Depots on and near the line of that road, continuing your progress as far as in your judgment, the movements of the enemy will permit. Your inspections must be thorough, and their results communicated from time to time to this Office. Your other orders will be sent to you as needed.
